本文在实验研究的基础上,讨论了低频wh-运动的获得和运动的约束条件。本文的目的是提供一些经验证据的建议,幼儿知道的非选择性约束的机制,并提出支持的主张,幼儿知道制约调节LF wh-运动的局部在语言习得的早期阶段。据Sugisaki(1999)报道,说日语的三岁和四奥尔兹儿童知道wh-adverbial naze 'why'不能出现在岛屿上,因此,儿童具有LF wh-movement和运动限制的知识。本文以蔡元培(1994)的句法分析为基础,比较了两个特殊疑问短语:那则“为什么”和斗牛日久天长的“为什么”。这两个wh短语在一个岛中出现时表现出不同的行为。更具体地说,当naze 'why'出现在一个岛屿时,观察到岛屿效应,而当dooiu riyuu 'what reason'出现在一个岛屿时,没有观察到岛屿效应。我们研究了日语儿童何时以及如何获得naze 'why'和dooiu riyu-de 'for what reason'之间的差异,以及相关的句法属性。
In this paper, based on an experimental study, we discuss the acquisition of LF wh-movement and the constraints on the movement. The purpose of this paper is to provide some pieces of empirical evidence for the proposal that young children know the mechanism of unselective binding, and to present support for the claim that young children know constraints regulating the locality of LF wh-movement at a very early stage of language acquisition. It has been reported in Sugisaki (1999) that Japanese-speaking children of three and four year olds know that wh-adverbial naze ‘why’ cannot appear in an island, and hence, children have the knowledge of LF wh-movement and constraints on movement. In this paper, based on the syntactic analysis by Tsai (1994) and his subsequent works, we compare two wh-phrases, naze ‘why’ and dooiu riyuu-de ‘for what reason.’ These two wh-phrases show different behavior when they appear within an island. More specifically, island effects are observed when naze ‘why’ appeared in an island, while no island effects are observed when dooiu riyuu ‘what reason’ appeared in an island. We examine when and how Japanese-speaking children acquire the differences between naze ‘why’ and dooiu riyuu-de ‘for what reason,’ and the relevant syntactic properties.
